SIZEITEM howto ?

[Stéphane COLZY]

Nope ;)

 

Already tried this
(I think that for shapefiles you have to use uppercase
but for postgis it doesn’t seem to matter)

You may want to try 'ONU_ID', I notice that for the label text you use
uppercase for the field name.  I am not sure if case sensitivity is an issue
in this case with PostGIS.

Ok, but the problem is that when I do this nothing happens (the map doesn’t
change)

 

So I thought may be I’m missing something


 

Here’s the layer definition :   onu_id is an int4 ranging from 1 to 900

 

 

  LAYER

    CONNECTION "user=scy password=scy dbname=vmap host=localhost port=5432"

    CONNECTIONTYPE POSTGIS

    DATA "the_geom from join_onu_wc USING UNIQUE ogc_fid using srid=4326"

    MAXSCALE 500

      METADATA

      END

    NAME "Cities"

    PROJECTION

      "init=EPSG:4326"

    END

    SIZEUNITS PIXELS

    STATUS ON

    TOLERANCEUNITS PIXELS

    TYPE ANNOTATION

    UNITS METERS

    CLASS

      NAME "DEFAULT"

      LABEL

        ANGLE 0.000000

        ANTIALIAS TRUE

        FONT "verdana"

        MAXSIZE 256

        MINSIZE 4

        SIZE 8

        TYPE TRUETYPE

        BUFFER 0

        COLOR 104 104 104

        FORCE FALSE

        MINDISTANCE -1

        MINFEATURESIZE 35

        OFFSET 0 0

        PARTIALS TRUE

        POSITION AUTO

      END

      METADATA

      END

      STYLE

        ANGLE 360

        COLOR 255 30 0

        SIZEITEM onu_id

        SYMBOL 7

      END

      TEXT ([ONU_CITY_NAME])

    END

  END

Stephane, 

 

To use this, you would add a column to your shapefile or dataset that
contained an integer value for how large you would like the symbol for that
feature to be drawn.  

 

This allows you to set different symbol sizes for each feature as opposed to
setting up separate classes with distinctive styles in the layer in the map
file.

David.

Hi,

 

Could someone give us a brief description on how to use the STYLE / SIZEITEM
property on points data ?

 

Like: what are the other related properties, what kind of attributes/fields
are supported ?

 

It would be very helpful
